This figure representing Wakanda's king T'Challa a.k.a. the Black Panther from the Marvel Studios movie has a stunning incredibly detailed head sculpt portraying Chadwick Boseman, the actor who played the role in the film. Marvel Black Panther Marvel Sixth Scale Figure also includes a switchable masked head which has two interchangeable eye pieces (masked/unmasked) to provide different looks for the figure. Plus the figure's body wearing a movie accurate Black Panther costume is super posable with 32 points of articulation.

This costume really stands out with some incredible special effects that glow when exposed to specialized LED lighting. Amazing purple patterns show up highlighting the Marvel Black Panther Marvel Sixth Scale Figure outfit that looks amazing. The figure comes with a LED lighted backdrop and stand to bring out these eye-catching reflective patterns.

Also included are seven interchangeable hands to allow for different poses and a spear. The two interchangeable heads are hand painted to ensure quality. Plus the Black Panther outfit is meticulously tailored. Hot Toys has put a lot of attention to detail in creating an accurate sixth scale reproduction of what the character actually looked like within the scenes of Marvel Studios' BLACK PANTHER.

In the movie, T'Challa's claim to the throne is challenged by his long-lost cousin the vicious Erik Killmonger. This figure also is dressed in a movie accurate Golden Jaguar outfit and features interchangeable heads that show it masked as well as unmasked with the face of the actor, Michael B. Jordan, who played Killmonger in the film. Marvel Erik Killmonger Marvel Sixth Scale Figure also has 32 points of articulation as well as eight different hands to mix and match for posing.

Unlike the Black Panther, Marvel Erik Killmonger Marvel Sixth Scale Figure outfit does not include the special glow effects though it does come with a backdrop and figure stand without LED lighting. The costume is still very detailed with golden accents and includes recreations of Erik Killmonger's weapons, a sword and spear.

Also check out this limited edition art print created by Marvel Studios Head of Visual Development, Ryan Meinerding that is actually very reasonable priced for a collectible piece like this. Each print is hand-signed by Meinerding and it is a very attractive poster that would look great on display. If you are a fan of the BLACK PANTHER this really is a great piece of artwork to pick up.

The Marvel Black Panther Marvel Art Print created as concept art during the movie's preproduction efforts to visualize the film's story captures the majesty and energy of Black Panther, the sworn protector of Wakanda. Set against the futuristic sci-fi inspired Wakandan skyline, this artwork features king T'Challa alongside his heroic Black Panther persona, highlighted in regal shades of purple. His elite bodyguards, Okoye and Nakia of the Dora Milaje hold their weapons high while the villainous Erik Killmonger stands menacingly in the foreground.
